In this Gravity Max Live Stream, we talked about megastructures that could be built in space in the far future. While most of these structures are way beyond the scope of modern technology and engineering, they do fit within known physics, and are therefore theoretically possible. What are your favorite megastructure concepts? Have you heard of any of these before? Do you have any ideas of your own? Over the years, scientists and science fiction writers alike have come up with countless megastructures, and many of them have to do with space. We showcase said structures in this week's episode of the Gravity Max Live Stream.
